At the end of the Atlantic War, the German navy's idea of ​​protecting ships was staged again, which made the US Navy seize the Mediterranean sea control and prepare to cover the US military's landing from the Italian Peninsula.

On the Soviet-German battlefield, there was still no possibility of the German army turning around. With the end of the Kursk War, the Soviet army gradually drove all the German army out of Soviet territory.

Germany's successor power is also exhausted, and the amount of hard currency such as gold and silver that can be paid to the Tang Empire is greatly reduced, which means that Germany is exhausted.

Zhang Meng quickly convened a meeting of imperial predecessors to discuss the new round of international strategic decisions of the Tang Empire.

At the meeting, Zhang Meng proposed to abandon Germany and Italy because these two countries had no more money and money. Instead, the Soviet Union was still importing various steel, grain, medicine and other strategic materials from the Tang Empire on a large scale. The Soviet army was eager to obtain advanced weapons and equipment from the Tang Empire, which was a great opportunity for the arms dealers of the Tang Empire.

"Germany and Italy may face the danger of defeat. Europe cannot let the United States and the Soviet Union share the difference. The empire should get a share!"

"We now have an atomic bomb, and even if we continue to stand on the side of Germany and Italy, we will be sure to win. It is probably a huge war of attrition, and it will not be worth the loss."

"That's right! If we support the United States and the Soviet Union in turn and get a share of the pie in Europe, we must have atomic bomb weapons that will make the United States and the Soviet Union dare not object."

"The empire had formed an alliance with Germany and Italy, and occupied a large swathe of territory and colonies of Britain, France and the Soviet Union. At this time, it would be wrong for us to help them. The international community will ridicule us for fences!"

"There is nothing wrong! The Tang Dynasty is different from Germany and Italy. Germany massacred millions of Jews, and they committed unforgivable crimes against humanity. With this alone, we can build momentum and win international public opinion."

Zhang Meng discussed with his civil and military ministers, and finally decided to take action in time to seize the fruits of victory from the United States and the Soviet Union.

After more than two years of strategic rest, the Tang army has completely controlled the strategic strongholds of Oceania, the Far East, and the captured British people.

In terms of military, the Tang Dynasty Royal Navy had another twelve main aircraft carriers in service, which increased the number of main aircraft carriers to 24. The various warships that captured the British and French navies had completed huge modernization upgrades and modifications, and replaced the command and combat system of the Tang army. It was reinstalled into the Tang army's special dark gray and was equipped with major fleets of the Tang Dynasty Navy.

During this period, the Tang army also eliminated a group of old and outdated warships, and the remaining warships were sufficiently competent for the battlefields of World War II, which made the main fleet of the Tang Royal Navy eventually owned 24 main large aircraft carriers. 56 escort aircraft carriers. 28 battleships, 3 battlecruisers, 31 heavy cruisers, 58 light cruisers, 472 destroyers, 104 submarines. There were also thousands of reconnaissance ships, training ships, troop transport ships, supply ships, patrol ships, gunboats, gunboats, torpedo boats, etc., with a total tonnage of 6.39 million tons, 110,000 tons less than before. Some warships were eliminated due to the failure of some warships.

Before World War II, the Tang army had four Tianwang-class first-generation aircraft carriers with a displacement of 30,000 tons, four Doukui-class quasi-second-generation aircraft carriers with a displacement of 40,000 tons, and four Chiyou-class second-generation aircraft carriers with a displacement of 55,000 tons on the eve of World War II. After the outbreak of World War II, the war machines of the Tang Empire operated with all their strength. Eight Chiyou-class second-generation aircraft carriers were built. With the brilliant victory of the Tang army during World War II, eight Chi

After the completion of the You-class aircraft carrier, it was not put into war. The Datang Navy Department did not continue to build more Chiyou-class aircraft carriers. Instead, it adopted the designer's new aircraft carrier design and started construction of four more powerful aircraft carriers. The Changan-class large second-generation aircraft carriers had a displacement of 68,000 tons. It was longer and wider than the Chiyou-class aircraft carriers, with a flight deck, more aircraft loading, and more advanced fleet command system and radar system.

The Tang army's original escort aircraft carriers had more than 200, but during the past two years, most of them were eliminated, and six aircraft carriers captured from the British Navy were included in the escort aircraft carrier category, and finally retained the scale of 56 escort aircraft carriers.

The powerful battleship formation composed of 28 battleships is a new highlight of the Tang Navy. Although all of them were captured from the British and French navies, the Tang army carried out large-scale modernization and upgrading them. It is difficult to see that they were once British and French warships. They replaced the new ship islands, reinstalled, had a modern command and control system, and had an advanced fire control radar system, which greatly improved the shooting accuracy of the main gun. A large number of Vulcan dense array air defense systems were installed. What is more noticeable is that each battleship was equipped with two sets of four-unit cruise missile launch systems, equipped with a Trident cruise missile with a range of 200 kilometers, which can attack on land.

The 28 battleships were captured from Britain, including 5 Queen Elizabeth-class (Queen Elizabeth, Warwear, Balum, Warrior, Malaya), 5 Revenge class (Revenge, Determination, Lamiri, Royal Oak, Imperial Power), 5 George V class (George V, Prince of Wales, Duke of York, Anson, and Howe), and 4 Great Britain class (England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland), among which four Great Britain class battleships are super battleships, and are 67,000 tons of displacement built by the British Navy to fight against Japan's Yamato-class battleships, equipped with 4 3-mounted 406mm main guns, and 30 knots super battleships.

The other nine battleships were captured from France, namely one Brittany-class battleship (Lorraine), one Colbert-class battleship (Paris), two Dunkirk-class battleships (Dunkirk, Strasbourg) and four Lisseller-class battleships (Lisseller, Jean-Bar, Kescoin, and Clermontsor).

Among them, the Richelieu-class battleships are super battleships. The Kescoin and Clermontso were dragged back to the Tang Dynasty by the Tang army and reinstalled the main gun developed by the Tang Dynasty. All four Richelieu-class battleships were replaced with 406mm main guns, which were consistent with the Great Britain class to ensure convenient ammunition supply. The original Brittany, Provence and Colbert were considered to have lost the value of modification and upgrading after driving back to the Tang Dynasty due to poor maintenance, and finally sank in the atomic bomb nuclear test.

The three battle cruisers of the Tang army were all from the British Navy, the Hood, the Reputation and the Counterattack. The latter was sunk by the Tang army in the Battle of Oceania and was salvaged out of water for repair. Finally, it was modernized and upgraded and modified and then installed in the Tang Navy. It was also equipped with Trident cruise missiles.

Another 31 heavy cruisers and 58 light cruisers did not have cruise missiles, but they installed a large-scale Vulcan air defense dense array system. Like more than 400 other destroyers, it is mainly used as a fleet air defense needs. The Tang army's naval combat system centered on aircraft carriers has been completely improved.
